While watching the news on TV the other day it was announced that Nike would come out with a new shoe name for Lebron James. The basketball star.
The cost of this new shoe would be $315 a pair. In these hard times with people losing their jobs, houses being foreclosed, people on food stamps, and unemployment the price seems a little high to me. What is more mind-boggling is that the American public would pay the price for a pair of tennis shoes made in China with child labor that probably cost about $10 to make. I am not blaming Nike for the price they are just good business people it is the American people who purchase them that are the idiots. If a new cell phone or iPad is introduced these morons will camp out in front of the store for days just to get the first one.
Don't worry if you can't afford the pair of shoes for $315 . I understand President Obama is coming out with a new program so all people on food stamps can get a voucher for them you will probably have to camp out for one week in front of the shoe store.
